“The more we claim to discriminate between cultures and customs as good and bad, the more completely do we identify ourselves with those we would condemn.

The barbarian is, first and foremost, the man who believes in barbarism.” CultureAnthropologyBarbarismCultural DifferencesSavagerySavageBarbarianCultural RelativismEthnocentrism Book:Race et histoire Source: Race et histoire
